1. Basic Chemistry

2. Matter
Matter = any material substance with Mass & Volume

3. Matter
comes in 3 phases
Liquid
Solid
Gas

4. Solid
Definite Shape
Definite Volume

5. Liquid Indefinite Shape – takes the shape of the container
Definite Volume

6. Gas Indefinite Shape – takes the shape of the container
Indefinite Volume – can expand and be compressed

7. Elements one of the 100+ pure substances
that make up everything in the universe

8. Examples of Elements C = Carbon Na = Sodium O = Oxygen Ca = Calcium K
= Potassium H
= Hydrogen I
= Iodine N
= Nitrogen Cl
= Chlorine S
= Sulfur P
= Phosphorus

9. Atom
the smallest particle making up elements

10. Sub-atomic Particles Protons p+ - positive charge, in nucleus
Neutrons n0 – no charge, in nucleus
Electrons - e- negative charge, orbiting nucleus

11. C Drawing an Atom of Carbon 6 12.011 Atomic # = # of p+ and # of e-
Carbon has 6 p+ and 6 e-
Atomic Mass
minus Atomic # = # of n0
Carbon has 6 n0

12. Drawing an Atom of Carbone- e-
6 p+
6 n0

13. Properties – The way a chemical substance looks and behaves
Compounds
Compounds - 2 or more elements chemically combined to form a new substance with new properties
Properties – The way a chemical substance looks and behaves

14. Compounds
Compounds – are made of 2 or more different atoms combined to form Molecules H O
H + O H2O =
Chemical formula lists the number of different atoms in a single molecule
Structural formula shows the arrangement of the atoms in a single molecule

15. Molecules Glucose Sugar C6H12O6 Chemical formula Structural formula C

16. Compounds or Inorganic Compounds Organic Compounds
usually don’t contain Carbon
generally come from the earth
generally simple molecules
always contain C & H and usually O, N, sometimes S & P
originate in organisms
generally complex molecules

17. Examples of Inorganic Compounds
H + O
= H2O = Water
H + Cl
= HCl = Hydrochloric Acid
C + O
= CO2 = Carbon Dioxide
Na + Cl
= NaCl = Common Table Salt

18. Examples of Organic Compounds
C, H + O
Carbohydrates = Sugars, starches & cellulose
C, H + O
Lipids = Fats & Oils
C, H, O, N, & sometimes P + S
Proteins
C, H, O, N, + P
Nucleic Acids – DNA & RNA
